Summary: This volume appears at a time of transition marked by a pervasive increase in the pace of change. In an atmosphere of optimism, in spite of the uncertainties created by change, the curriculum of the elementary school is being reassessed, its purposes more searchingly examined, and its role between the preschool and secondary school periods of growth and learning more clearly defined. In the reassessment, the trend toward involvement of administrators, curriculum consult-ants, teachers, parents, other interested citizens, and the learners themselves has also increased. Involvement has sharpened the need for systematic ways of exploring questions and problems, such as providing the time for face-to-face discussions and for research and evaluative studies.
